with john mccain on a lot of things. it is beyond disgraceful this administration is going around saying giving this delay does nothing to change the strategic calculus or limit the ability of what we can do if we do strike syria. that is simply, blunt, a disgusting lie. we know now, a.p. and other news outlets have been moving stories on this, that asad has been moving his assets into civilian areas and moving civilian areas into military areas. he's, in effect, making it extremely difficult for americans to do something even cosmetic without killing a lot more innocent people than remotely necessary. and the president is saying all of that basically because he just wants cover from congress. this idea for a lot of my friends on the right are celebrating obama for consulting with congress and all of that. but president obama does not say that he needs congress' authorization. he says he wants their organization for something he already insists he has authority to do anyway. what he's basically looking to do is perform c

john mccain so angry? 40 years after the vietnam p.o.w.s came home the most famous of them is angrier than ever. we are we fighting vietnam again in the u.s. senate. the ticked-off hagel, is it just for show? the basic unfairness of vietnam itself that some went and some didn't? is it about lyndon johnson's inability to win the war or end it? what is it about john mccain that seems to excite those who know nothing about vietnam. well tonight we dig into the deep well of resentment burning in john mccain's patriotic heart. a resentment not against the north vietnamese who imprisoned and tortured him, not against george w. bush and his political henchmen who tried to stain mccain's reputation. but just like he did, in the same army of america's long nightmare in vietnam. i'm joined by david corn with "mother jones" and joy reed with the grio. i have to tell you i'm convinced we're watching a flashback. watch this, here's senator john mccain, he did a long, angry wind-up before he launched into his first so-c
